[2012] EWCA Civ 1825

The Sentencing Council's Guidelines on breaches of anti-social behaviour orders were, strictly, applicable to criminal cases, but had an obvious role in civil contempt cases. A 16-week sentence of imprisonment for admitted breaches of an anti-social behaviour injunction had been within the permissible range and in line with those guidelines.
